Athletico Physical Therapy Opens in Lincoln

On June 21, Athletico Physical Therapy (www.athletico.com/Lincoln) opened a new location in Lincoln at 5633 S. 16th St., Ste. 600. Athletico recently partnered with Excel Physical Therapy, a leading physical therapy and industrial rehabilitation provider with thirteen clinics in Omaha and central Nebraska. Athletico is looking forward to providing quality care throughout the state of Nebraska.

“After receiving my Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Nebraska – Lincoln and graduating from Creighton University’s DPT program, I took a job with Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center as a staff physical therapist. In that role I provided sports medicine outreach with Pius X High School, which led to coordinating the school’s sports outreach program for over 10 years,” said Duane Wade, DPT, CSMT and facility manager of Athletico. “Now I’m excited to bring Athletico and its legacy of quality care to the Lincoln community that I care so much about.”

Services available at Athletico Lincoln are in the areas of physical therapy, workers’ compensation, and manual therapy. Those experiencing a nagging ache or pain are welcome to schedule a 30-minute free injury screening for a personal evaluation conducted by one of the clinic’s specialists. Practicing clear, consistent communication between therapist, physician and patient regarding progress, Athletico Lincoln provides ongoing patient education on diagnosis, treatment plans and prescribed home-exercise programs. Athletico Lincoln accepts all major insurance plans so you don’t need to worry about your visits not being covered. There are convenient hours, including early mornings, late evenings and Saturdays, with each initial evaluation scheduled within 24-48 hours of the patient’s request.
